If you are looking for a legal way to play some classic Sega Genesis games on your PC then Steam now has the answer.

Eleven Sega Genesis titles are now available to buy through Steam, with ten of the eleven costing $2.99. The remaining game, Sonic 3D Blast, costs $4.99.

The full list of available games includes:

Altered Beast

Comix Zone

Crack Down

Ecco the Dolphin

Gain Ground

Golden Axe

Shadow Dancer

Shinobi III: return of the Ninja Master

Sonic 3D Blast

Space Harrier II

Vectorman

Although there doesn’t seem to be any saving on price, you can choose to buy the games as a bundle pack for $34.99 rather than individually. This is also thought to be the first pack of games, so we may see more appear on the service over the coming months.

The question is, will you pay $2.99 for each of these games or is that price too high?

Where are the really good Genesis games? Streets of Rage 2 for an example.

It is so easy to get a downloaded version of these games and you can also get the ‘better’ versions for some for the arcades.

The only way I’d be interested if they offered multiplayer support over the internet.

eh

Isn’t that supposed to be Ecco (not Exxo) the Dolphin?

IMO genesis doesn’t have the replayability these days that SNES does. While there are still lots of SNES games that I’d like to play, Genesis titles are really limited- good call on Streets of Rage and of course Sonic 1 and 2, gunstar heroes, Shinobi, bloodlines, that’s about it. Oh yeah, toe jam and earl!

I tried to play ecco and kid chameleon not too long ago and despite loving both back in the day I didn’t play very long.
